    This ^^^^^!
    1125 is far too low. You need to be at least NET your BMR which you will be able to get on the tools page here. I know you do Scottish Slimmers - i tried to do this (MFP) and SS together and IT DOES NOT WORK - in the long run! Everyone I know who has lost weight on SS or WW has put it back on again. Very low calorie "diets" like this do not work and are not sustainable! I have only lost 14lbs in a year but guess what - when i am bad i dont put it back on!


    Good luck!!
